Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #6 (LADYBUG) (5-2) - Daughter of 'Medaglia d'Oro' has finished 2nd in two straight here at this tag and trip. Both came following a $75K claim by John Sadler March 16, and she'll be tough to beat in this spot.

2nd pick: #8 (Himmah) (7-2) - Irish import has finished 2nd in five of 10 on the grass and did so here facing tougher going a mile May 4. Capable at this trip, she's a stretch threat today.

3rd pick: #2 (Storming Lady) (5-1) - Speedy daughter of 'Flat Out' drops into a claimer and is racing on the grass both for the first time. She cost $275,000 and has tired in both dirt sprints facing special weight foes. Filly should show whatever she has in this contest.

4th pick: #1 (One Upper) (15-1) - She raced evenly when finishing 6th of 10, beaten just over six lengths racing here at this tag and trip when debuting May 17. Daughter of 'Kitten's Joy' was 5.5 behind 'Ladybug,' but should narrow that gap with normal second out improvement.
